drawing challenge
Today I have to do a blog about this drawing challenge that we did last week the interpersonal skills that I used were verbal communication because we had to describe the picture and active listening because the person had to listen to the instructions
The interpersonal skills were helpful because we had to listen to our partner and because we had to listen to the other people’s instructions. The person I worked with was hunter f we worked well together when he was listening to my instructions
If I did it again I would try to get to do a better job at drawing the hellions level that I was working at was level three.

Waking up after the storm……
Waking up after the storm……
I came into the cabin wondering what was that noise lightning bolt just hit the engine. It was about to explode. I quickly inflated the lifeboat and quickly put all the essentials I needed to survive and jumped in and paddled away. Bang Pow the boat exploded sending shrapnel everywhere. Oww a piece of shrapnel just went into my arm. I ripped the piece of wood out, patched up my arm and went to sleep. Then when I woke up the storm had gone and kept paddling until I found the land. It was a very sandy and flourishing and heaps of coconut trees and what I thought to be mangoes differently applets I left the mystery of foot for a couple of days until I saw a bird eating it was like it must be ok for me to eat if they're eating it by now I have made a shelter and some fire it turns out it was ramengo it was a very juicy mango I said I have started to write help on this start of the beach and very big logs I've seen a couple Plains pass by hopefully lisping left and send help I don't think it's a meal on the island anymore because I've seen of the council tree, not mine I have to stay in the world then hopefully not be spotted help is coming I saw written this guy with the crop duster that's a good relief just got to stay.
